You push an object, initially at rest, across a frictionless floor with a constant force for a time interval, ?t, which results in a final speed of v for the object. You repeat the experiment, but with a force that is half as large. What time interval is now required to reach the same final speed?
1. 4?t 2. ?t 3. ?t/2 4. 2?t
